I wouldn’t touch that engine with a bargepole. The idea of being caught with one of those out of warranty would fill me with utter dread. The Ranger 3.0 V6 is the “Powerstroke” American evolution...

I did like my 2007 D22 Navara, 3.0L version with the ZD30. One of the most capable factory setups I've had offroad, it just couldn't pass anything it was totally gutless.
